Im trying to.
I got the transmission, rewiring in the car is done, I just have to get some rewiring under the hood. Motor and transmission is in. Body mounts are all done and patched back in and seam sealed. Bumpers are back on too. Have to test fit headers and send them to get coated.

That seam sealer looks so good. Definitely my style (and looks OEM).

I need a steering wheel button like yours (no kidding).

Still aiming at a YB time frame?

Edit - I overlooked your comment about YB while the pics were loading.

I used a very similar substance - worked great and doesn't leak water into the car (carpet is dry.) Came in a qt can and slathered it on there like barbecue sauce on a rack of ribs.

Thanks man. Some stuff I got in a caulking tube at autozone. Taped it off, caulked it on and then spread it with acid brushes. When it was all spread out I sprayed it with some spray paint prep and it let it spread nice and smooth, then took the tape off.

That is a biondo button. Fits perfectly in the wheel. I still have alot to do but I really wanna make it to that event, I don't care if that's the first time the car is off the jack stands lol

Painted the driver door bar as a test. Used black hammeretone paint and put it on with a foam brush.
